Onc of the pleasantest drives in the suburbs
of Washington is through the grounds of the
soldiers Home, which consist of over 500
acres lying two or three miles north of the
city. This tract forms beautiful and
picturesque park which is open to all Its
history is interesting. When General Scott
aud his victorious army entered the city of
Mexico they were fired upon by the citizens
levy was made upon the city, and in 1913
General Scott transmitted Sl00,O00 to the
Secretary of War, with the expressed wish
that the sum might be allowed to go to the
credit of an army asylum. This is the result.
The plan upon which the Home is founded
differs materially from the Homes for
volunteer soldiers like the one ut Togus. 1t
is exclusively for soldiers of the regular
army. and it is supported in part by tax up
on all regulars of twelve and one-half cents
per month About 600 are accommodated
there now.
The bulldogs are of pleasing architecture
and the material is of white marble. Ad-
joining these buildings is the cosy little
cottage set apart for the summer residence of

the cottage The statue of Gen. Scott stands
upon a commanding eminence, and the view
from this spot is one calculated to excite the
admiration of the beholder. The city of
Washington lies before him. with the Capitol
in full view. while further on TO the south may
be seen the broad Potomac. and on its banks

transplanted two thousand hills of straw
berries and sowed three or four acres of
oats. He went prepared, taking his own

there he took quiet possession of his farm

and kept bachelors nall. They say he can
beat many a woman keeping house or
cooking. and can wash and do up his own
shirts.
Wednesday evening, during a smart
thunder shower, lightning struck a tree in
Elder Woodcocks door-yard, near the

searched the barn and buildings around
the place without success ArouSing his
uncle VIM. Leland. on whose place he
lives, and the neighbors. they searched the
shore and at last discovered a body some
distance from it, floating on the water. 1t
proved to be the body of Mrs. Alley.
There were hopes Of resuscitatiOn and a
physician was Immediately sent for, and
everything was done TO restore her but it
was useless. Mrs. Alley was about thirty
years of age and leaves one child about
three wears old. She had pleasant. pretty
home and everything to live for. but her
